How to save the Australia China Relationship with Professor Chen Hong

Professor Chen Hong who has devoted a life of study to Australia and its literature, had his Australian visa abruptly cancelled on the orders of the Australian Secret Intelligence Organisation last August. He has been director of the Australian studies centre at the East China Normal University in Shanghai since 2001 and was a frequent visitor to Australia.

Former Labor prime minister Gough Whitlam invited Professor Chen to Australia in 1991, and in 1994 was asked to translate for another former Labor Prime Minister, Bob Hawke, during a visit to China.
